"My plan is to improve the reserve team for next season and to have some more players ready for the first team.
"As a big club you need to increase your level to look for the best players in the world, and we are trying to find some players for different positions. But the most important thing is to find skilful players and players with character.
"If we want to increase our level away from home we need that type of player to suit our style of play.
"You need players like Jamie Carragher, for example, with passion. We are trying to find, if possible, both.
"I have said many times Carragher has been the best defender in England this season - he is maybe more important than John Terry at Chelsea."
